If you only have a pastry lid some people will call it a Pot Pie. I think I am a little older than you, When I was a kid we were on Free School dinners. This was because I came from a big family. 6 Kids. Back in those days only Dads went to work. Mums stayed at home and looked after it and the kids. So I remember school dinners very well, This was a popular one for all of us

Yes Andrew, I agree but this is how they used to make in in our schools. I prefer a pastry bottom as well.

@ConstantCompanion7 жыл бұрын
RetroHax I grew up in Central Oregon. One lunch I remember in particular was turkey noodle casserole with cheddar, lime jello made with minced celery and carrot, a yeast roll, canned green beans and peach, cherry, or apple cobbler. But you got REAL MEAT!

You guys start one of these shows, and I think: really? Wonder how that would be? By the time you are finished, I want to make it and eat it and hear the praises from my family.....But, I tell you what, there's no way I could eat that much food without having worked up a good appetite on a 3 or 4 mile walk or with 2 hours of heavy gardening!

The key was cooking the meat the day before Scott. I've cut out the carbs although I've had a week off as it's Sharon's birthday and we've eaten out a few times but I've lost a stone at the moment.
